I never know that Hong Kong have their own version of 'Zha Jiang Mein' till I found out the recipe from Christine Recipes :D How is it different from other versions like 上海炸酱面 (Shanghai)，台湾炸酱面 (Taiwan)，韩国炸酱面 (Korea)? My kids absolutely adored this Hong Kong 炸酱面 as it tasted sweet and tangy as tomato sauce and tomato paste are used.
